Having three would be perfect really.

You must also remember that a SINGLE Mod would get absolutely butchered in the event of a contentious decision. Not that such a thing is ever likely, obv.



It would have to be policed with an iron fist.

Mods decision final, no arguments.

If you don't agree with that, you lose posting rights on the staking board.


How will that be enforced?

What do you mean?

Surely there is an option in the software for stopping someone posting on a specific board?

So what if they post the same thing on a different board?

Didn't think you could post staking requests on other boards?

As far as I understand, any staking requests outside the staking board get moved there, don't they?

And if you weren't allowed to post there, the post would be deleted?

Deleted by who though, a mod?

What if that mod were me, what if I didn't agree with the decision of the staking mod?

What if the poster continually re-posted?

Camel, I suppose what I'm thinking is if we take a scenario like Alex's request:

A number of people will think it's acceptable, and a number won't

The fact that someone is appointed and comes down on one side or the other does not make one of the views correct and is more divisive than letting things find their own balance.

And I'm not being awkward for the sake of it. Ultimately it will just mean more work for the mods.

As an onlooker it looks like you are 

Staking threads get moved as standard, people who can't get on that board get them deleted, repeat offenders get a cooler/ban whatever.

Standard stuff ?

Countless people posted sensibly along the lines of 'caveat emptor' etc. Keys wasn't appointed so he can critique staking posts from any angle he wants, just like the rest of us.

Truly ridic idea to look to appoint judges/mods to police this board specifically

Existing mods approach is plenty - ie someone does something that obviously harms the community, ban them from Blonde

A bunch of petty fascistic rulings over the minutiae within staking requests does not advance the place at all



great post says it all really. why complicate things?!.  

OP makes OP stating terms of the deal and who they are with links to herbie mob and OPR etc (there is even template advice to help on the board itself).  Potential buyers can ask questions if they wish and the market dictates whether to buy or not. I am finding this whole debate pointless.

Don't see the problem with AlexMartin's staking thread. He's well known, and those that do know him can buy pieces. Those who don't know him simply don't buy.

If you're new to staking then obviously you're going to have to put a bit more effort into it.

Yeh standard rules. If a mod constantly did this he would get delete Similarily If a gentoo rep continued to come on every dtd post posting Genting.

You break the rules - you get the hammer.

Keys having his say is fine, I really doubt martins would give a fuck or be offended as he will have recd the money, nor will the stakers mind as they hae invested in the players poker skills not writing skills.

If he doesn't sell out then maybe next time he would change his op style

Yes. We cooler / ban people after extensive discussion to determine if it's warranted. Then we have to deal with the inevitable flack that follows.

it seems a big ask for us to do that on behalf of a staking mod, especially if we don't all agree with the decision in the first place.

What about the guy case? If mods judged him to be ool and owe 3k what happens then?  If its just advice on ops and deleting spam then you don't need 3 staking mods.
